He describes how the three qualities of material nature combine in eighty-one mixtures to produce the different species of life, comparing them to the colors red, blue, and yellow. Prabhupada then speaks on the position of the living entity as part and parcel of God, comparing sparks to a great fire, and notes that the same intelligence that floats millions of stars in space is divine. He addresses the modern belief in overpopulation, arguing that if God can create, He can also maintain, and describes spiritual communism, the understanding that everything, including the land and its produce, belongs to God while we are His children, entitled to live at His expense. Turning back to the verse, he explains the four classes as the intelligent class (brahmana), administrators (kshatriya), producers (vaisya), and workers (suddra), comparing them to the parts of a body that cannot be missing without harm. He observes that modern society is chaotic because it lacks true brahmanas and kshatriyas, and that even in India the divisions are largely nominal since people are not classified by quality. He closes by urging Westerners, especially Americans, to take up Krishna consciousness seriously and become a first-class nation.
